• I have not done a triathlon since the early 90's yet I still come on here to see what's happening on a regular basis
• I upgraded my Computrainer in spring last year and have yet to ride on it
• My bikes did not go outside all off this year
• I love the thought of doing an Ironman, but I know in my heart that the long training sessions would bore the hell out of me. I find myself questioning whether the reward justifies the opportunity cost (my economics background)
• I would love to be a fast triathlete but I would rather look like I have a good amount of muscle on me. The need to be very very light does not appeal to me (my wife would beat me up).

Since I've spent the past day and a half slowly making my way through the thread, I feel obligated to contribute:

• I refused to join the Boy Scouts because I went to a meeting and they were discussing a 5 mile hike. I am now addicted to IM.
• I loathe smoking. I seriously don’t understand the habit and why people would spend that much money. I also don’t understand how people in today’s world actually start smoking. It baffles my mind
• Both my parents were smokers. I did the math once and learned that if that had given up their smoking habits when I was 10, they could have saved enough money to put me though college. I'm still kinda grump about my college debt due to that fact.
  
• I love my parents dearly, despite the fact that I have spent pretty much my entire life trying to live a completely different lifestyle than them
• As a teacher, I wish I was working during the times when kids were backhanded, paddles, and other various kinds of corporal punishment. There are just some kids who desperately need it.
• I think a lot of teenage problems would be solved with a good backhand intelligently aimed
• I love teaching but am not a big fan of my school. I refuse to do anything to change that.
• I think there should be a law against certain professions having a high %body fat. For example, doctors, cops and PE teachers. They should not ever be fat.
• I hate wearing clothes. I wish it were socially acceptable to be free all the time
• I can’t remember the last time I slept through an entire night without getting up to pee
• Adult women in pigtails are absolutely perfect

Take a short break from ST and read my blog:

" . . . I hate wearing clothes."

This is a Backdoor brag. I like clothes because it'd be ugly if I didn't wear any. Must be nice to be so confident in your tri-body. ;)

I started reading this thread yesterday and I want to know what happened to snackattack?

What's the dirty secret here?

I want to know what happened to scout.

If I learn anything, I'll definitely share.

have also been reading for past day...

• I look at ST constantly all 8 hours I'm at work
• I "fake" work to make it look like I'm busy to my supervisor
• I don't know how to change a tubular...I'm riding tubulars in my IM in 4 weeks
• I played 4 years of College baseball... I lost interest in baseball after my first month of Freshman year
• I overtrain way to easily... but refuse to think so and continue training
• I believe in a higher power, but hate the idea of religion
• The movie inception altered my idea of reality
• Being a generation Y kid... I hate how Baby boomers treat us in the workforce
• I long for rest days... and then tell myself I'm worthless when I actually take one
• I have somehow managed to put pressure on myself to hit a certain time in my first IM

feel much better :)

Just to see what is was like????

I knew a dude who stuck a water pick in his urethra (penis hole) and turned it on....just to see what it was like.

You gotta come up with a better reason than "just to see what it was like" if you do either (water pick penis or wear undies under your cycling shorts).

I once ran a Marathon cause it was on the way

 
I have a fascination with midgets. One of my life goals is to have a big enough property to build a miniature house that will house a midget housekeeper and her midget husband, who will be employed as my landscaper/poolguy/etc. I really want them to wear Oompa Loompa costumes, but that may be going overboard.

I shave my legs even though I haven't raced in two years.

I've never once smoked pot or done other drugs (and surprisingly still thought up #1), but will greet retirement with a 4-foot bong and a hash brownie. Work rules prevent an earlier date.

I see no shame in getting in to Kona through the lottery and I want to be one of those winners because I won't dedicate the time necessary to qualify.

I haven't been to a barber in 14 years. I cut my own hair until I got too tired of cleaning up afterwards. Now I just shave it bald.

I am lazy as fuck.

I've bailed on an A race because I chose to get hammered instead.

I've reworn cycling shorts without washing, too.

Ha! No. I'll add another just to clarify. Any dreams that I once held about having a nice male figure went out the transition exit at IMLP last weekend. There are some seriously buff dudes in this sport and sadly, I am not really on that list. Yes, I checked out other dudes when we all got nearly naked before donning our wetsuits.

I'm sure you have a nice body. Be proud! ;)

Remember, the buff bodies don't necessarily mean fast bodies -- Just an observation over the years.

you must be the "most interesting man in the world" ;)

luckily buff doesnt make you fast....

- I sometimes wear chamois butter just to walk around the house. I prefer DZ Nuts because it tingles.
- I'm planning on pacing my wife in an open marathon a week after my IM. I haven't told my coach because I'm afraid he'll be really pissed off.

Riding the Awesome Train With: Dark Horse Coaching

Food for thought: Maybe those Baby Boomers are treating your generation like lazy freeloaders who fake work to make it look like you're busy.

-I always wear work out clothes multiple times before washing. (Laundromat is expensive)
-Sometimes I put on socks in T2.
-I want to paint a triathlete chick like one of my french girls wearing only compression sleeves... (Just kidding... Not really...)

ha..

Got me!! I appreciate it!!

I guess its good I quit in order to return to school... However, to cover my ass a little.. when I left they told me that I was the hardest working individual they have had in a long time... (determined by my work I completed)

Maybe being a Gen Y kid with technological skills just made my work so fast and easy that I needed to "fake" work the rest of the time because I was done already?!

i'm 27 and i agree with this.

but now my confession. sometimes i have to run during lunch. i get back a sweaty, disgusting mess who's barely able to walk. I lock my door, turn on a fan i have and sit there in boxers until i'm able to compose myself enough to return to work.

Edited for grammar.

Is that all you've got? Are you sure?

I go for a run at lunch. It is along a deserted beach on the Caribbean. But it is Very Hot Always. I come back from lunch, take a shower, grab something to eat and continue working. In the air conditioning. On the beach. On the Caribbean. My husband does the kid taxi. I'm a baby boomer. :)

my dirty secret is that I'm beginning to be happy the sea has been too rough to swim because then I don't "have to worry" about the cudda. I hate the motherfracking cudda.

I pee in the shower-At home and gym
I smell the qtip after i pick my earwax
I think I have an amazing body.

Instagram or twitter me softly @xatefrogg

I pee in the shower too
I get to work late because of am workouts and leave early for pm workouts
I spend way more money on Triathlon than I can afford
I was so please with myself that I FINALLY fixed my own flat on my ride the other day
I check myself out in store shop windows as I run or ride past
All I ever want to to is tell people about my training (I want to tell MYSELF to STFU)
I'll walk around my house for hours covered in road grime before I shower
Part of the reason I am a vegetarian is because it makes people say "how do you get protein?"

I cant believe Ive never seen this thread!

I also pee in the shower, and love to watch my wife pee in the shower (she thinks Im a pervert)
Would love to be faster, but I love food and beer to much.
I always overestimate my own ability and end up getting smashed at races
Would love to see my wife make love to another women

I would love to watch your wife make love to another woman too!!

yeah?

I wore underwear with bike shorts for years. I needed more than a thin layer of Lycra to keep the monster under control.
